A young person in our family was using this. It's a beautiful app, but typing and editing code on an iPad without a physical keyboard appeared to be extremely frustrating. Cutting-pasting, refactoring, etc. all become cumbersome and sh

There seems to be a lot of confusion in the other posts as to what this is. Simply, it is an adapter that lets you use SQL syntax to introspect Ethereum blockchain data (blocks, and transactions.) Typically people do this using a JS API bui

Strictly speaking, the bug was not in the language itself, but in a specific contract's code.

"The incident was described by two entrepreneurs who were told about it in the weeks after it occurred but were not authorized to speak about it." May be unfair to all parties involved that a situation is described on hearsay, wit

Just wish everyone would hop onboard quicker. We still need a lot of consumer education. For example, Apple Pay works great at Whole Foods. I use it every time. Other people in line painstakingly pay with credit cards, despite holding an iP

Hey, I never questioned his fluency, just not being able to speak in a professional/serious tone to match the other people. If you liked it, great. Also, you're assuming too much about a 鄉民 on the Internet. :)

It's not intentional I'm sure. Just that the tone mismatch, serious/professional local speakers vs. over-excited/happy interviewer, were off-putting.

Chinese speaker here. His comments were all over-the-top excited, repeating and exaggerating others' words, almost like mocking the Chinese staff (see around 2:20 mark for example.) Think Borat-speak. Seemed very strange and unfit for

Gas is its own unit, decoupled from ETH. Opcodes cost a certain amount of gas to execute [1]. When creating a transaction, a sender sets the maximum amount of gas that they are willing to pay. This is the "gas limit." [1] https

I'm a firm believer that Americans don't understand how to zone cities. In Asia (e.g. Japan) you can have beautiful high-rises mixed with things useful for daily life, be that small shops, restaurants, or convenience stores. Even

Yep, previously they had a web app only (not even Electron, just a website). The MAS version came after that. We use it heavily day-to-day.

WeChat, while excellent on iOS, is also a lifesaver on the desktop given that they provide true native apps for Mac and Windows (no Electron!) Video/voice calls, file sharing, group chat, stickers, everything is there, but the performa

Sometimes doing one thing well is all you need. Anki is like the assembly language of flashcards apps, higher-level solutions can be very handy too. (Speaking as a multi-language learner.)

If I swipe long enough vertically, the card does seem to go away, so I figured it's a "come back to this later" feature. Didn't realize could do up/left/right to mark status, that's handy!

Just downloaded. Quick feedback: flicking away a card takes too long (vertical distance) of a flick. I have to carefully drag it from top to bottom for the card to flick away. Wish it was more sensitive. Perhaps 30% of the screen height is

Ask HN: Why use cloud service (e.g. S3) encryption at rest?

Always wondered that about encryption at rest as a feature in cloud services. The key is stored in the same system somewhere (or your app wouldn't function). A rogue employee can find the key if they want. So what is the practical bene

I wanted to use Atom for the reasons you stated, and gave it a decent chance for a few months. Cool product as far as features and community. However, went back to Sublime due to Atom's heavy CPU/battery usage and freezing while I

Weird thing I have been seeing on Reddit is comment upvotes being off-by-one periodically on page refreshes. Reload, you get 3. Reload again, you get 4. Again, you get 3. Seems like a replication issue?

As someone who writes both, it's even difficult to compare these as they are apples and oranges. Elixir (due to Erlang base) is great for long-running or distributed services and includes tooling to, for example, easily introspect the

If it is to be reused by other modules, or if it is complex (and likely itself needs to be split up into smaller functions) Think of: items = ["file_a", "file_b", "file_c"] Enum.map items, &HelpfulD

Btw, there are a number of ways to write that expression depending on the complexity of the function Short syntax: Enum.map [1,2,3], &(&1 * &1) Long syntax: Enum.map [1,2,3], (fn num -> num * num end)

by tsukaisute 9y ago
Because with more expressive constructs, you may find not having to write list[ix] very often. For example, a traditional "for" loop may be replaced more succinctly with an operation such as "Enum.map" or "Enum.filt

Oh, I never meant it as a gripe at Erlang's syntax myself. However, there is so much untapped power that the developer community is missing because Erlang is immediately dismissed. People will try node.js, but not Erlang. I'm seei
